The complex evaluation was carried out of potential allergenicity of three soya protein specimens - IPS, IPS-1 and IPS-2 manufactured by Ardex R, USA, which were attended for employment as protein component of specialized infant formulae. The content of total protein, amino-nitrogen, peptide fractions of molecular weight below 9000 D, precipitating protein antigens, trypsin inhibitor, was studied in the specimens. The apparent digestibility was measured by a multienzymatic system in vitro. The allergenicity of isolates was compared by means of histamine LD50 resistance test in guinea pigs and also by the reaction of active anaphylactic shock (AAS). The evidences have been obtained that IPS specimen containing the lowest levels of trypsin inhibitor and small peptide levels is characterized by the lowest sensitizing activity in AAS and simultaneously decreases the animals' resistance to histamine in the highest degree. Apparent digestibility of all the three specimens did not differ significantly. A conclusion has been made that the evaluation is necessary of infant hypoallergenic formulae components by a complex of independent experimental data.

This study was conducted to investigate the recent research trends of alternative protein foods being developed to replace traditional livestock foods and thus determine the current state of the technology and the potential for industrialization. The results of this study showed that the technology related to cultured meat has not yet reached industrialization. However, serum-free media development, technologies to improve culture efficiency, and technologies to improve taste and flavor are being researched.

Cell-based meat (CBM) technology is a highly promising alternative to traditional animal agriculture, with considerable advantages in terms of sustainability, animal welfare, and food security. Nonetheless, CBM's successful commercialization is dependent on efficiently dealing with several critical concerns, including ensuring biological, chemical, and nutritional safety as well as navigating the global regulatory framework. To ensure CBM's biological safety, detecting and mitigating any potential hazards introduced during the manufacturing process is crucial.

Human rhinovirus C (HRV-C) is a significant contributor to respiratory tract infections in children and is implicated in asthma exacerbations across all age groups. Despite its impact, there is currently no licensed vaccine available for HRV-C. Here, we present a novel approach to address this gap by employing immunoinformatics techniques for the design of a multi-epitope-based vaccine against HRV-C.

Peanuts are highly nutritious but pose a significant risk of triggering food allergies. While heat treatment can reduce the allergenicity of many foods, it may also alter their structure, potentially impacting detection results. This study employed double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) and lateral flow immunochromatography (LFIA) to evaluate the allergen Ara h 3 following heat-moisture treatment.

Swimming produces many psychophysiological effects, including blood, hormonal, enzymatic, pulmonary, cardiovascular and energetic adaptations. However, asthma and allergies are becoming increasingly prevalent medical issues among elite endurance-trained swimmers, where exercise-induced asthma or bronchospasm is frequently reported. Heavy endurance swimming training, especially under adverse conditions, stresses the airway mucosa, leading to inflammatory changes, as observed in induced sputum in competitive swimmers.
